5.4.8 Block 9998 or 9999: Reboot Module
If the processor places a value of 9998 in this register, the module will perform a
warm-boot operation. If the processor places a value of 9999 in this register, the
module will perform a cold-boot operation. In this application module, both of
these operations perform the same function. They exit the program and then
restart the program. Many of the program parameters set in the user
configuration must be set at program initialization and cannot be set while the
program is running. Therefore, both functions operate the same way.

[SNTP CLIENT]
The [SNTP CLIENT] section is used to specify the parameters for the Simple
Network Time Protocol (SNTP) Client provided with the protocol driver. This
client is read in order to keep the driver's internal clock set correctly. This version
of the driver supports SNTP Revision 3 and stratum between 1 and 14.
SNTP is used for time synchronization of produced and consumed commands.
When an exchange occurs the driver compares time stamps from the previous
exchange. When the new exchange time is less than the previous exchange, the
exchange is ignored. This can occur when the Ethernet packets are routed and
delayed. Time synchronization provides for data integrity.
